Description

When a node detects that a node for which it is holding hints has recovered, it begins
sending the hints to that node. This setting specifies the maximum sleep interval per
delivery thread in kilobytes per second after delivering each hint. The interval shrinks
proportionally to the number of nodes in the cluster. For example, if there are two nodes in
the cluster, each delivery thread uses the maximum interval; if there are three nodes, each
node throttles to half of the maximum interval, because the two nodes are expected to
deliver hints simultaneously.
